@neptune
I have burnt this game and it works fine when used with zoneloader.
My question is what patch are you speaking of?

I have seen PPF patches for games, but from what I could tell these are for swap magic users. I use cog swap (I like to support the original hackers) and have never had to use a PPF patch. What are they for?

I am not new to PS2 backups I have around 120 or so backups and I also backup XBOX games, but the whole PPF thing has me confused.

Any info would help.

if it works fine with zoneloader play it that way


if you find the ppf patch for the game patch the iso file of the game then u dont need zoneloader anymore

i am receiving the same problem as rinog and i am using zoneloader with swap magic. i have tried 2 burns, one at 4x and one at 2.4x on reliable discs, but it just freezes at the info screen (the screen that pops up right after zoneloader). it sounds like it is trying to load it, but nothing happens. any ideas?
